Current Muhurtas

In any daytime there are certain periods, which have special meaning.

Yama Ghantaka

{[kalams.yg.start]} - {[kalams.yg.end]}

Rishi Vasishtha: "Yama Ghantaka should always be avoided in any Muhurta for auspicious (Shubha) activity". It is considered that any activity (especially travelling) started during the period of Yama Ghantaka pushes the one towards to death.

Abhijeet Muhurta

{[kalams.am.start]} - {[kalams.am.end]}

Abhijit Muhurta is one of the most auspicious and powerful criteria for initiating all types of works.

Brahma Muhurta

{[kalams.bm.start]} - {[kalams.bm.end]}

Brahma Muhurta is optimal for waking up as well as any activity connected to spiritual practices (such as Hatha Yoga, Dhyana (meditation), etc), creating, planning, projections etc.

Gulikā Kalām

According to Jyotish knowledge Gulika Kalam is a very negative (Ashubha) period of time every day that should be shunned for all auspicious and beneficial activities.

Rahu Kalām

{[kalams.rk.start]} - {[kalams.rk.end]}

According to Jyotish knowledge Rahu Kaalam is a very negative (Ashubha) period of time every day that should be shunned for all auspicious and beneficial activities.

Rashi Drishti (sign aspects)

Other settings

Graha

Graha (if translated from Sanskrit) means "the one that controls". The physical bodies of Grahas in our world are planets. But the physical body of each Graha is only a small fraction of the whole concept of the term "Graha" as the planets representing Grahas are only terminals or visual forms. Grahas are also Devatas (Deva is the Sanskrit term for male-deity, Devi - the Sanskrit term for "female-deity), which are the sources of energies that structure everything in our world. With the right use of knowledge about those or other influences that Grahas have, the one can create a Kundali (horoscope) at any object and get a specific picture and knowledge about it.

Rashi

The word "Rashi" can be translated from Sanskrit as "the beam of sparkling constellation" and means the zodiacsign. Each Rashi, being a specific zone in space and time, is responsible for certain areas of life for each person on planet Earth.

Nakshatra

Nakshatras are 27 lunar constellations that in Vedic mythology were considered as 27 wives of Chandra (Moon). According to the legend Chandra was supposed to visit each Nakshatra in strict order, without giving preference to any wife.

This Nakshatra
spans from 20°0' in Kumbha (Aquarius) to 3°20' in Meena (Pisces). While the first three quarters
of this Nakshatra fall in the sign Kumbha (Aquarius), the last Nakshatra falls in the sign Meena (Pisces). While Shani (Saturn) rules Kumbha (Aquarius), Guru (Jupiter) rules Meena (Pisces) and the Nakshatra Poorva
Bhadrapada is ruled by Guru (Jupiter). Hence the outcome is the end result of a
combination of all these 3 planets, depending on the quarter of the Nakshatra.

A person born in
the first three quarters of this Nakshatra (natal sign being Kumbha (Aquarius) has a
slender, tall stature. Thee natives born in the last quarter (natal sign being Meena (Pisces)) have medium height with somewhat fleshy physique. For those born in the Meena (Pisces), a well placed Guru (Jupiter) indicates good fortune, but for those who are born
in the sign Kumbha (Aquarius), even a well placed Shani (Saturn), the lord of Kumbha (Aquarius) means that
the person has to put in reasonable efforts to get his share of the fortune.
Poorva Bhadrapada born have set principles in their life, which they like to
follow under any circumstances.

These people like
to help others, and can render impartial advice, which helps them earn the
respect and confidence of others. Making money is not the first thing in their
mind and hence they may be financially weak. But what matters the most for them
is the position they achieve in the society, through helping others and
following their own set of principles. Also they spend money in the most proper
way, avoiding any misuse of the same.

Poorva Bhadrapada
born tend to suffer from acidity arising out of mental tension and diabetes.

Females born in
this Nakshatra have a well-balanced body. They are a little more practical
minded when it comes to charity.

Male Natives

1. Physical
features: One
of the peculiar body phenomena is that he has a lifted ankle of the foot. He is
of medium size. Broad cheeks with flushy lips.

2. Character
and general events: He is generally a peace loving person but occasional blasting has also been
noticed. He is a very simpleton type. Since he is very much principled, he has
to suffer a lot mentally as he takes into his heart even a small confrontation
or problem. He likes good food and is a voracious eater. He is not very
particular about dresses.

He normally expresses
impartial opinion. He does not believe in the blind principles of religion. He
is ever ready to lend a helping hand to the needy. Even so, hatred and
resistance will be his reward in return. He can easily enjoy the respects and confidence
of others even if he is financially weak. He is God fearing and performs
religious rites in accordance with the scriptures. While the native will be
moderately rich, he likes to have respect and honor from the public rather than
accumulating money. He is impartial in expressing his views.

3. Education,
sources of earnings / profession: As he is a born intelligent and has the knack of
trade he can shine in any type of job he undertakes. If he is employed in a
government organization he can look forward for unexpected gains or promotions
from the government. He is capable of quite independent life both socially and
financially. Period between 24 and 33 years of age will mark remarkable
all-round progress in his life. Even though occasional mental tension is not
ruled out during this period. Period between 40 years and 54 years of age will
be his golden period when he can establish fully. He keeps much restriction on
the spending activities.

He can shine in the
field of business, banking, government job, or as a teacher, actor or writer,
research worker and astrologer or astronomer. If in government service, most of
the Poorva Bhadrapada born are engaged in the revenue collection department or
in any capacity where cash transactions take place.

4. Family
life: He
cannot enjoy fully the love and affection from his mother. As per the learned
in astrology, the native will cause death or separation of his mother early.
But in my personal experience, the native cannot derive full love and attention
of his mother, as she will be working. Naturally, being a working mother, she
is away most of the time and the native is automatically separated. Hence our
ancients who have written this dictum are also correct to the extent of
separation, but not to the extent of death. For causing death other planetary
affliction is also necessary and birth in this Nakshatra alone is not
sufficient.

One of the redeeming
features is that there will be a lot of things with which he can be proud of
his father. Subject to other favorable planetary positions, father of the
native has been found to have fame and possess a very good moral character.
Such popularity may be mainly in the field of fine arts, oration or in the
writing field. In spite of these good qualities of his father, the native quite
often disagree with the opinion and confrontation takes place.

5. Health: He is prone to paralytic
attack, acidity and diabetes. He may have problems with the ribs, flanks and
soles of the feet.

Female

Females born in this
Nakshatra will also enjoy more or less the same results as mentioned above in
addition to the results mentioned below:

1. Physical
features: She
is neither lean nor fatty, and neither tall nor short. In some cases very slim
figure have also been noticed. However, she is very beautiful in appearance.

2. Character
and general events: Honesty and sincerity are the main characteristics of this native. She
is of the type who believes that let her head is cut down, she will not deviate
from the right path and principles. She is a born leader. She is capable of
extracting work from others. Hence she will be successful when she gets power
and authority. Example of extreme optimism.

While she has the
humanitarian doctrine, she will not extend her helping hand unless she is convinced
fully that such kindness, sympathy and generosity are actually required. There
is a peculiar politeness in her behavior.

children. She has good ability in the house hold administration. She will enjoy
lots of benefits from her children. She will have many children if she marries
a Rohini boy.
